The New England Patriots have made a strong effort this offseason to drastically improve their roster after back-to-back seasons with a 4-13 record, and at least on paper, they seem to have accomplished this goal.
The Patriots spent a significant amount of money in free agency -- more than $300 million -- to add productive veteran players at key positions.
And then last week in the 2025 NFL Draft, the Patriots made 11 picks and bolstered their talent and depth at important spots, especially on offense. In fact, New England's first four picks were all geared toward helping surround quarterback Drake Maye with better players.
